@THELIVINGJOKE I am reading “feeling good: the new mood therapy” by David Burns. I find that this book has helped me quite a bit. It talks about changing your mental processes that cause depression. Hope this helps.

@iamavner Cheers, I’ll look into it. I think the books that talk about changing the thought process are the best in getting any real results. This way you are actively trying to alter your inner mechanics whereas something like pressure point exercises may or may not work.

@Heythurkiddo
I know what you mean my friend,
My dad just recently the 21/07/2010 had committed suicide and took his own life. Depression runs heavily in my family, he was the strongest person i knew, and could go to hell and bac, and to see someone like my dad give in, really takes a security blanket off me. not to mention affects my anxiety disorder and adds to already standing depression. if you need to chat, im here, msg me.

@THELIVINGJOKE I think while pressure point exercises may help elevate your mood, they won’t cure depression. You need to understand what goes on in your mind that causes you to feel this way because, as the book puts it (and I think it is right as it makes the most sense out of all theories) you create your bad and more correctly distorted thoughts.

@iamavner And when you learn how to control how you feel and think, you will hopefully cure your depression. Thats really oversimplified and there are many exercises in the book that help with that. Honestly though, books may not for everyone. It has helped me a little, but I am trying to contact a therapist because I think I need to get feedback from someone.

Anything this window-licking, feckless dullard has to say can be instantly disregarded. The crazy fuck believes in giants, i shit you not. Ask him for evidence & he’ll call you “uneducated” (check out the grammar of his comment on my channel lol) & “immature”. Engage him in debate & his idea of victory is, & i quote “block & win”.
What the hell is wrong with the education system in the US, no wonder you’re depressed!

lol, the “verballed abuse”?? Considering you call anybody who questions your instituitionable, certifiable & utterly ludicrous claims about ‘giants’ (lol) immature, your comments look & sound like they were written by a belligerant child who’s only defense is attack. If you actually had an argument then you’d be able to discuss it rationally. If you think some unlearned, brain donor could possibly “upset” me then you’re more delusional that I initially perceived which…..

…..truly is some feat let me tell you! lol, my skins a little to thick for that kid 😉
Now quit with the shameless, stalling tactics, address the evidence & answer the question. What evidence do you have to warrant an irrational belief in giant humans? How would these mythical beings manage to overcome the physical laws that govern our universe & how do you explain the fossil record which alone COMPLETELY refutes your claims? It’s like you deny the sky is blue whilst refusing to look up.

@ReptilianFreemason so you keep following me cuz you wanna tell me you won this debate? your dumber than i thought young blood, thanks for proving that xD, three comments on things that have nothing to do with it tehehe. good day my son.
